Lucky thread

[Dani Rose]

My bloods from the recurrent mc clinic came back pos for subclinical hypo but the next draw was neg. But upon looking I have had all the symptoms. My Drs just blamed the RA, meds and mc.

I was getting thyroxin but now they are redoing the bloods next week. I'm seeing gp Tomo to get a referral to a specialist as I'm hearing levels can fluctuate and mean you still have it. Ttc without meds will mean no bfp or more mc's so I want it looked into further x

 

[fletch_W]

Yeah I'm still going to wait until Monday. If my cycle is still 28 days after mc then AF should be here tomorrow so there's no point wasting a test, may as well wait and see if she shows. Think I'm just tired to be honest, had a long day and shouldn't be feeling too bad. Think it's just hard to know that as from today I will have been not pregnant longer than I was pregnant, if that makes sense. I would have been 24 weeks now
But my baby changed my life and I will always be thankful for that, despite how hard the loss has been.

PMA for the future eh ladies?! Big hugs and baby dust to all of you xxxxxxxxxx

Thats one thing i havent done yet. count how far along i would have been now. i just did and 22 weeks! i miss being pregnant and having my future planned out. we were planning on moving when i got to 6 months to live nearer oh parents in a much nicer part of the city but we have to wait until next year now

I would have been 22 weeks too fletch. I think that's been the hardest part - starting to make plans for a life that includes this new little person, then having to just start all over again. A friend of mine lost a baby at 31 weeks last year and when I told her about my MC she said she knows how ripped off it makes you feel. I can't really think of a better way to explain the whole getting back up and starting again process. Ripped off just seems pretty fitting really!

thats the perfect way to describe it!! i really do feel like i have been ripped off and left with nothing

Hi ladies,

Hope you are all well today.

Carly - Dont be worried about bleeding too long until it gets to more than 2 weeks. I bled for 5 weeks in total because I still had retained tissue. Once the bleeding stops take a hpt and hope for a bfn (crazy I know) but that will mean your hcg is down low enough and do when you do get a BFP you will know its not remaining from the miscarriage. And my advice is to get a follow up scan to check your uterus is clear. It's nothing to worry about but it can happen that it doesn't all clear like it did with me and that can lead to infection. And dont let doctors tell you no, be firm and stand your ground. I bled for 5 weeks coz doctors wouldn't listen to me and just kept telling me to be patient.
On a brighter note though, I am sure that you will be absolutely fine in a few days and getting ready to ttc again (sorry if all that sounded scary but I wish someone had said it to me at the time).

AFM today, still no AF and if I'm still having 28 day cycles she's due today. Got cramps, and what feels like strong O pains from my left side.....anyone else get that when AF is due/just before getting BFP?? I want to test today but I refuse to waste another test on anything bug fmu!!!

 

[Carly.C]

Hi Carly. I hope you're feeling ok despite what's happening
Take some time to grieve if you need to.

Can I ask how you know you've MC'd? Have you had any bloods done?

My first MC at almost 7 weeks I bled for almost a week (3 or 4 days quite heavily) until it started slowing down. This last time I was less than 4 weeks and it was lighter than a period and only lasted 3 days.[/QUOTE]

Hi Baileybubs, sorry to you for your losses. One is hard enough never mind what you've been through
I knew early last week something was up as my pregnancy tests began to get lighter until i finally got a negative on Friday. I started bleeding Saturday morning and its been relatively heavy since then but nothing i cant deal with. The cramps are also intermittent and bearable too, which are more intense but similar to AF cramps. I had an early pregnancy scan booked for Tues so I'm guna keep it and hopefully find out whether i'm passing it without any intervention. I havent had any bloods done but the fact that my tests are now negative indicate to me that I possibly have little or no HCG left in me. It'll be interesting to see what the scan shows and find out what happens from there. Thank you for your concern xxxxx

 

[baileybubs]

Hey Carly, not my quote hun, I've only had one loss. It's so easy to get lost in this thread isn't it, we are so chatty lol xxxx

Oops, have only just seen this message. I think I answered all your questions inmy previous post! I had a bad day Friday and cried all day knowing what was about to happen and I feel it has done me the world of good as I can see light at the end of the tunnel now, at least I know I can get pregnant, there justmaybe an issue with holding on to it. Time will tell and its a bridge i hope i never have to cross. Thank you for your lovely words, people are so nice and supportive

girls im so angry right now. i was just looking at cards online to find one for a funeral im going to next week and found this picture for a card. im in two minds to write a letter to the company to complain.

 

[baileybubs]

Omg!!!! That's is awful!! How can anyone find that remotely amusing or acceptable!!! Fletch what company was it??

Oh and dani forgot to say yay for temp drop, hope you are holding up ok.

Mrs duck how are you today?

Bump - hows the symptoms today?

Shellie - did you show oh the letter? And did you manage any bd'ing around O time?

Ttcbabyisom - how's things going?

Nessah - any symptoms yet? How are you feeling?

Tawn - where are you in your cycle now hun?

And anyone I have forgot I am soooooo sorry, there's so many to keep track of!! But big hugs and baby dust to you all!!! Xxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Tawn]

Carly, I am so sorry for your loss hun. It is an awful thing to go through, especially with your first because it feels like that glowy, wonderful pregnancy concept will always be a little be less because we will have to worry from now on. hun. Btw, I bled for a full week with my mc at 5w5d and ended up having minor contractions which were really painful about 4 days in to pass the sac. Hope that sheds a little light, but everyone is different!

Bailey, TEST tomorrow! LOL so excited and hopeful!

Cath, happy birthday hun. I hope you are feeling better today!

AFM, I am still waiting for o! Grrr stress has delayed it, but hopefully as that is easing off it will be here sometime soon. Doesn't feel close though as I have no fertile cm. Ehhhh well what can you do? I feel ok about it though, because DH is on lates so we can have lazy sexy time in the mornings after stepson goes to school. Plus, my bday is on Tuesday, and last time we got pregnant on the night of stepsons bday so maybe it is a sign

Omg! I think I would commit a murder if someone gave that to me. That is absolutely awful!!!! Wow that's made me so angry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[fletch_W]

i cant find it now! i only saved the picture. i got so mad i went offline but now i cannot find the website i was looking on!! some people are so inconsiderate!

 

[baileybubs]

Just shows you what kind of people there are in this world doesn't it?!

Tawn - liking the sound of lazy sexy time haha!! I was working 13 hour shifts around what I thought was O time! Thankfully I had a day off after those horrible shifts and that was the day I got my positive opk! Still no sign of the witch! I'm trying so hard not to get excited but I can't help it!! Just keep trying to remember what things I'm doing I do get bfn or AF shows, I'll be having the chicken livers when I go out for a meal on Tuesday, I will be able to drink at the party on Saturday and I will be able to finally get the tattoo I've been planning for over a year lol!! Always focus on the positive things in life eh??

Ladies I am starving this evening! Went a little dizzy before too big probably coz I'm hungry haha!! I had a jacket potato about 3 hours ago so shouldn't be hungry again! Oh and I'm revising for my driving theory test. Half of its bloody rubbish, and the othe half is a test of first aid not driving knowledge lol!! But I've done the test on my iPhone app and getting 100% right woop woop!!

Cath - Happy birthday hun, hope it's going ok xx

 

[ShellieLabTek]

Shellie - did you show oh the letter? And did you manage any bd'ing around O time?

No I haven't shown it to him. I'm not ready to, at least not yet. We did BD yesterday, but I think that was about 22 hours after my O pains, so I'm thinking that it wasn't soon enough to do anything (since eggy lives 12-24 hours, some sites say it can up to 48 hours, but I figure that's a looooooong shot!). So I'm just hoping that the BD session we had 3 days before is enough! I want to be able to say our baby is due on his birthday so bad! My CM is mostly dried up now, though I felt for half the day what felt like mild O pains on the opposite side, but I figure since my Cm is mostly gone and cervix doesn't feel soft anymore that it was just weird cramps, as I doubt I'd be lucky enough to O twice!



Fletch, that card is absolutely horrible! Whoever designed that has obviously never gone through one. If someone sent me that I'd want to hit them!

 

[baileybubs]

You never know though Shellie, a long shot is still a shot, PMA!!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Ooooh poppy that's exciting!! How's it all going?

Yeh I'm still so nervous though. Every time I go to the toilet I expect to see spotting. Feeling a bit sad today as it was the day before I got 10 weeks in the last pregnancy I was told my baby had died. Had a the medicated miscarriage at exactly 10 weeks. I'm just so worried about going to 12 week scan and getting told baby has died

How is everyone else doing?
I'm so excited about these BFP's that are coming up in the next few days.

Doing ok...hoping this is our cycle...last cycle was really messed up and i got my period 5 days early so wasn't expecting it at all and now this cycle, not really sure what to expect, i think i'm ov'ing earlier than last cycle so it all seems a mystery again...i was so sure of things the first few cycles and now this...oh well, i'll just keep temping and using my soft cups and BD'ing and hope that we catch that eggy this time. Thinking about you too!!!
